Cindi's Info

I had been asking for a dog ever since I could talk. My parents finally bought me Cyndi when I was 11. I cried when I found out my dad had bought her. She was (and still is) the prettiest cocker spaniel I have ever seen. We were going to call her freckles at first because she had dark brown "freckles" on her nose and paws. She is very protective of her family and doesn't like it when strangers try to get close. I love her with all my heart and can't imagine what I would do without her. She loves playing with her "baby" a little stuffed bunny rabbit and LOVES going for walks, like most dogs. Even though she isn't a puppy anymore, she will always be my baby.

Princess' Info

A little about Princess she is a great puppy she can already shake hands, lay down, sit pretty and is working on rolling over. Her highness is a fair and just ruler over her kingdom but she rules her land with an iron paw. Some of the things she like to do jump up on to the kids bed to wake them up in the morning and playing with her tennis balls.

Lady's Info

Well, Lady is probably the cutest cocker spaniel in the world. While on vacation in sunny Florida, I went into a pet store looking around. I wasn't going to buy anything, just looking. The pet store didn't have any dogs, but as I walked to the back of the store I noticed 1 happy little reddish blonde cocker spaniel. I questioned why they only had one dog sitting in a small cage at the back of the store. Lady was there because she was the runt of a litter of 8. She was already 6 months old, and nobody wanted a runt. I couldn't help but notice how she could actually climb up the side of the cage. She was such a happy little pup. I offered four hundred dollars for the dog, a leash, and a bag of food. As soon as I got Lady in the car to go home to Virginia with me, she was scared to death. She slept in the back seat behind the driver's seat, and she didn't make a sound. A huge Mack truck passed by and Lady got herself stuck underneath my seat. I pulled over to a gas station and tried to coax her our with some dog food. That did not work. I went into the gas station and bought some beef jerky, again, failure!!! So, I had to unbolt my car seat and take the whole seat out. She was so cute just sitting there, her little tail stub wagging. I knew it was going to be a challenge to drive her 12 hours to Virginia. We made it. Lady was very skittish. She grew comfortable. I have had her for a year now and we are inseparable. She goes everywhere with me. To the store, to the park, to a softball game, to the beach, EVERYWHERE. She weighs about 18 pounds now and is still very petite. I always tell people I have the cutest cocker spaniel in the world. They tell me "You are only saying that because its your dog." Then I show her off, and they see its true, I have the cutest, friendliest, and happiest cocker spaniel in the world. She loves all people, she loves all dogs, and she loves me with her whole heart. Everyday when I come home from work, she is so happy to see me, she sings. She also sings to songs on the TV. Its very hard to explain her. I just love her so much, and she has unconditional love for me. People say animals don't have feelings, I know Lady does. Thank you for reading about Lady.

Jake's Info

Jake is my baby boy. We found him as a stray a little over a year ago in the rain. He was originally going to be given to my grandparents, but as they were still thinking about it me and Jake grew very attached to each other, and we just had to keep him. He loves to play, and cuddle. I love him so much, and I don't know what I would do without him.

Gonzo's Info

Hello, my lil' boys name is Gonzo Bean Burton and he is One and a half years old. Gonzo is the most wonderful little boy in the whole world. We originally bought him from a breeder in Tucson, AZ and we now live in Mesa, AZ. We moved into a house with a pool and Gonzo swims everyday (whether we want him to or not). Besides being an accomplished swimmer he can also do several tricks. His best, and favorite, trick is when we say "phoenix Coyotes" he howls like a coyote...All of our friend love to see his performance. I have never had or seen a dog more lovable than our Gonzo, just this morning he woke his papa up by licking his head, it was incredibly sweet... 

In his picture, he is sneaking a nap on the chair..he is not really allowed on the furniture but when nobody is looking he loves to catch a few ZZZ's on his favorite chair.
